    Statement: Should Doordarshan be given autonomous status?
    Arguments: I. Yes. It will help Doordarshan to have fair and impartial coverage of all important events.
    II. No. The coverage of events will be decided by a few who may not have healthy outlook.

    A) Only argument I is strong     

    B) Only argument II is strong

    C) Either I or II is strong              

    D) Neither I nor II is strong

    E) Both I and II are strong

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Explanation Option [a] is correct. Clearly, the autonomous status of the Doordarshan will be a step towards giving it independence for an impartial coverage. Autonomous status does not mean that the coverage will be decided by a few. So, only argument I holds.
